# Medical image annotation for radiology and pathology AI teams

> Medical image annotation for model training: X-ray, CT, MRI, ultrasound, pathology, 3D volumes and ophthalmology, with clinical reviewers and QA reporting.

Clinician reviewers on the modality, documented quality gates and EEA processing, for models in development, evaluation and research.

### Brain MRI

### Pathology

### 3D anatomy

## Medical imagery labelled for clinical AI

Clinical reviewers on the modality they practise

Medical image annotation labels scans and slides so that models can learn to detect disease, assist in diagnosis and support clinicians.

An example task: marking, on hundreds of lung X-rays, exactly where pneumonia is present, so a model learns to find it in X-rays it has not seen.

### Raw medical imagery

- X-rays, CT scans, MRIs, ultrasounds or pathology slides

### Clinical annotation

- Task-appropriate clinical experts mark the agreed structures and findings

### Quality review

- Two passes and adjudication, reported against the task-specific acceptance plan

### Model training

- Annotated datasets train healthcare AI models

## Clinical reviewers, defined gates, EEA handling

Medical imaging annotation needs the right clinical reviewer, a written acceptance plan, and documented handling of the images.

### Clinical reviewers

### Two passes and adjudication

### DICOM and 3D volumes

### Access control and data protection

### Protocols per project

- Guidelines updated as the task evolves

### Planned capacity

In healthcare AI, quality is a task-specific responsibility. The metric, reference set, reviewer roles, uncertainty handling, and acceptance gate must all be explicit.

## Where medical image annotation is used

Medical imaging annotation for model development, evaluation and research across radiology, pathology, surgery and ophthalmology.

For studies read by credential-verified clinical readers, with two-reader agreement, adjudication and a per-study QA record, see

### Diagnostic radiology models

### Pathology and cancer research

### Surgical planning

### Ophthalmology and digital health

### Multimodal healthcare models

## What the engagement includes

High-stakes imaging work needs explicit qualifications, reference sets, uncertainty handling, adjudication, governance, and acceptance reporting.

### Clinical expertise

### Controlled data handling

### Clinical quality plan

### Planned scale

### Medical QA

### Accountable delivery

YPAI designs the annotation and QA plan around the clinical task, your requirements and the agreed acceptance criteria.

## Scope a medical imaging pilot

Every label traceable from guideline to adjudication

From pathology boundaries to findings in chest X-rays, define the task, imaging format, expert roles, de-identification requirements, quality metrics, and evidence package for a scoped pilot.
